it would be handy if the wireless connectors have a string input conector for the name instead of getting the name from the module name. this way you can make multiple copies of an send and recive pair more easy.

I just copy an already named receive (if I have given it a long name) and paste it where needed, quick and easy.

Just do it like angstrom says, its the best way i think 🙂

I also think that what dasdeck said would be about as easy to do as a string input to the code component. A very nice idea probably, yet a hell lot of coding I presume.

i think you missunderstand me. if you take a look at my png knob, you see that they have the possibility to act as amster and slave. so i have a master knob of one knob type, and a few slaves. this is to save the mem of the png files and to share preferneces. if i have more than on master, the slaves have to now wich master they have to choose, so the wireless pair must be of the same name. ok, i just realized that it is not too much work if i use synced copys of the master for the slave and change the wireless name, but i would brefer to do it in the property dialog, ok not me, but i think it should be possible, as this is just what the property dialog and the developer mode things are made for: to avoid useing the shematic for classic modular synth fun. So if i could change the wireless name with a string input i could change this string from my propertys dialog. Although i peronally dont need it, (as i dont need all those propertys and developer mode stuff) it has to be there in order to get my png knob module (wich is also not that nessecary to me) 100% propertyiezed (user friendly/ no shematic hassle nessesary/developer mode of/noob Style like). You get me? Of course many of us can do a lot right now, but the usability things could get improved if they want to get serius.

I have another suggestion: a bool out pin on Props component, wich indicates propertys show/not shown, would be usefull sometimes-
